I remember a demonstration he did, I didn&#39;t understand everything he was saying back then but I was amazed at the results on the paper and the memory staid with me many years latter- I understand it now. He also had a great sense of humor.grobles63http://www.blogger.com/profile/08252689747635195676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18907156.post-62590147740182815122012-06-18T18:46:19.715-04:002012-06-18T18:46:19.715-04:00When my mother (1912 - 2001) was in third grade in...When my mother (1912 - 2001) was in third grade in Chicago, Illinois, she and Gustav were the shining &quot;artists&quot; in the class. The teacher would award 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize each week for the best artwork, and he and she (Lucille Larson) would alternately receive the 1st and/or 2nd place prizes. So, I have always followed his work. He also did a beautiful series of &quot;Sacred&quot; illustrations that appeared in Family Circle Magazine in the 1960&#39;s. I love his ability to convey the muscles and movement!
